position, placed at a distance above the first position, where the drive shaft and the 
dewatering shaft are axially decoupled; a solenoid that moves a coupler in the first or 
0 second position upwardd by allowing an electric current to flow to a coil; a coupler 
guide that rotates by contact with the coupler when the coupler moves upwardd, and 
fixes the coupler in the second position or guides the same to the first position by 
contact with the coupler when the coupler moves downwards; a fixed core fixedly 
disposed to surround the perimeter of the solenoid; and a moving core disposed on 
5 the perimeter of the coupler body, that moves the coupler body upwards by forming a 
magnetic flux path with the fixed core when an electric current flows through the 
solenoid, wherein, when the moving core moves upwards, the gap between the 
moving core and the fixed core is maintained within a set range.

Granted: 2002-12-24
Abstract: At the transmitter side, carrier waves are modulated according to an input signal for producing relevant signal points in a signal space diagram. The input signal is divided into, two, first and second, data streams. The signal points are divided into signal point groups to which data of the first data stream are assigned. Also, data of the second data stream are assigned to the signal points of each signal point group. A difference in the transmission error rate between first and second data streams is developed by shifting the signal points to other positions in the space diagram expressed at least in the polar coordinate system. At the receiver side, the first and/or second data streams can be reconstructed from a received signal. In TV broadcast service, a TV signal is divided by a transmitter into, low and high, frequency band components which are designated as a first and a second data streams respectively. Upon receiving the TV signal, a receiver can reproduce only the low frequency band component or both the low and high frequency band components, depending on its capability. Furthermore, a communication system based on an OFDM system is utilized for data transmission of a plurality of subchannels, wherein the subchannels are differentiated by changing the length of a guard time slot or a carrier wave interval of a symbol transmission time slot, or changing the transmission electric power of the carrier.

IPC: G06F9/44

Granted: 2011-04-27
Abstract: A server operating system supports multiple client-server sessions and enables a user to begin a session and later dynamically reconnect to that session even if the user uses two different client computers. The operating system has a multi-user session manager to enable multiple client-server sessions on the server and a multi-user stack protocol manager to manage one or more protocol stacks used in communicating with the clients. When a user connects to the server via a first client, the stack protocol manager assigns a first protocol stack to this first client-server connection and the session manager creates a first session for the user. When the user subsequently reconnects to the server using a second client that is different from the first client, the stack manager assigns a second protocol stack to a second client-server connection and the session beings creating a second session for the user. During this latter process, however, the session manager recognizes that the user is affiliated with the first session. The session manager adapts the first session to conform to the system configuration of the second client. The session manager then reassociates the second protocol stack with the reconfigured first session so that the user is returned to his/her original session, even though they logged on from a different client.

Abstract: The present invention provides an audio enhancement apparatus and method which spectrally shapes harmonics of the low-frequency information in a pair of audio signals so that when reproduced by a loudspeaker, a listener perceives the loudspeaker as having more acoustic bandwidth than is actually provided by the loudspeaker. The perception of extra bandwidth is particularly pronounced at low frequencies, especially frequencies at which the loudspeaker system produces less acoustic output energy. In one embodiment, the invention also shifts signal from one audio signal to the other audio signal in order to obtain more bandwidth for the available loudspeaker to reduce clipping. In one embodiment, the invention also provides a combined signal path for spectral shaping of the desired harmonics and a feedforward signal path for each pair of audio signals.

Abstract: A positioning apparatus and method for accurately determining a current position of a mobile station. The current position of the mobile station is determined utilizing radio waves arriving from a plurality of base stations installed in a communication area. For calculating a propagation range of a radio wave arriving from each base station, error correction processing is performed using a predetermined error correction coefficient previously calculated by measuring a radio wave propagation situation around each base station to estimate a propagation range of a direct wave within incoming radio waves. The current position of the mobile station is determined using the estimated propagation range and the positions of the respective base station.

Abstract: The invention relates to an epilating device which comprises a housing (1) with an opening (5), after which a rotatable drive shaft (7) is arranged extending parallel to said opening and carrying a series of cooperating pinching elements (9) coupled to the drive shaft in a rotational direction (R). During rotation of the drive shaft, pairs of adjacent pinching elements are periodically pivoted with respect to each other, under the influence of a compression member (81), from a catching position, in which a distance is present between the pinching elements near the opening, into a pinching position, in which the pinching elements contact each other near said opening. At least one of the pinching elements of each pair comprises a delaying element (49, 65) for delaying or postponing a pivotal motion of the pinching elements towards the pinching position.According to the invention, the delaying element comprises at least a first and a second contact position (141, 143) for the pair of cooperating pinching elements, said contact positions defining a pivot axis (53) about which the two pinching elements are pivotable with respect to each other. The pivot axis is arranged at a distance from a central point (45) of the pinching elements and between said central point and a pinching surface (57, 71) of the pinching elements. In this manner, a relatively strong delaying effect of the delaying element is achieved, which results in a good synchronization of the pivotal movements of the pairs of pinching elements, which are in the pinching position at the same moment.In a preferred embodiment, the delaying element comprises a substantially flat contact surface (49, 65), an edge (53, 69) of said contact surface defining the pivot axis for the pivotal motion into the pinching position.
